Has someone offered you a huge sum of money or a valuable consignment? It's a 419 or advance fee fraud - find out how they work, and what to do to be safe.

This is a next of kin scam, where the scammer wants you to believe you can get a part of a deceased person's fortune. In most cases the scammer is playing the rôle of a corrupt banker who wants to steal a deceased customers money with your help, for a share of the loot of course. If this was real, you would be helping a criminal to steal, but in this case the scammer will only steal your money by asking you to pay for made up fees to release the money to you. Don't fall for this scam!
